Description
Currently, c2rust-analyze
can't handle ptr-to-ptr casts when the pointee types are different, even when they're compatible/safely transmutable like u8
and i8
/c_char
. Thus, fixing this is necessary for c2rust transpile
d string literal support (#833).
fn cast_only(s: *const u8) {
s as *const core::ffi::c_char;
}
callgraph traversal order:
DefId(0:3 ~ string_casts[c5c4]::cast_only)
visit_statement(StorageLive(_2))
visit_statement(StorageLive(_3))
visit_statement(_3 = _1)
rvalue = _1, desc = Project { base: PlaceRef { local: _1, projection: [] }, proj: [] }, base_lty = g0#*const u8[NONE#u8[]]
visit_rvalue(_1), desc = Some(Project { base: PlaceRef { local: _1, projection: [] }, proj: [] })
equate NONE#u8[] = NONE#u8[]
visit_statement(_2 = move _3 as *const i8 (Misc))
